Bruce Low Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord
Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord
And he landed high and dry
Der Herr sah hinab und sprach: "Es ist zu dumm!
Ich schuf die Menschen
Doch ich weiß nicht mehr warum
Ich schick' ein bißchen Wasser
Und ich spül' sie alle fort!"
Der Herr stieg hinab
Und als er auf die Erde kam
Da sah er Papa Noah
Der sich ordentlich benahm
So steht's geschrieben
So lesen wir es gern:
Noah fand Gnade vor den Augen des Herrn
Herr sprach: "Noah! Es kommt jetzt eine Flut
Zieh' die Jacke aus und setz ab den Hut!
Nimm dir eine Axt, fang unverzüglich an:
Hol' Sem, Ham und Japhet und bau' dir einen Kahn!"
Noah sprach. "Herr, ich glaub' das kann ich nicht!"
Der Herr sprach: "Noah, mach kein störrisches Gesicht!
Du weißt nie was du kannst, bevor du es versuchst
Jetzt geh und hole Bauholz, auch wenn du leise fluchst!"
Noah rief: "Herr, da ist sie groß und schön!"
Der Herr sprach: "Noah, es wird Zeit an Bord zu geh'n
Nimm von jedem Tier ein Paar, ohne Makel und gesund
Und Frau Noah und die Kinder und die Katze und den Hund!"
Noah sprach: "Herr, es fängt zu regnen an!"
Der Herr sprach: "Noah, bring die Tiere in den Kahn!"
Noah schrie: "Herr, es gießt in Strömen hier!"
Der Herr sprach: "Noah, hurry up und schließ die Tür!"
Arche stieg auf den Fluten empor
Und nach vierzig Tagen schaute Noah durch das Tor
Er sprach: "Herr, wo sind wir? Ich hab' das Schaukeln satt!"
Der Herr sprach: "Du sitzt auf dem Berge Ararat!"
Noah rief: "Herr, die Wasser rinnen fort!"
Der Herr sprach: "Noah sieh den Regenbogen dort!
Bring alle Tiere und Menschen ans Licht
Seid fruchtbar und mehret euch und reizt mich nicht!"

Line by Line Meaning
Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord
God favored Noah and granted him mercy and compassion
And he landed high and dry
Noah and his family survived the flood on dry land, safely out of harm's way
God looked down and said, 'It's too much! / I created humans / But I don't know why anymore / Since the first day, there's only been wars and murder / I'll send a little water / And I'll wash them all away!'
God expressed frustration and disappointment with humanity's actions, and decided to send a flood to wipe out civilization
God came down / And when He came to earth / He saw Papa Noah / Behaving properly / That's how it's written / That's how we like to read it: / Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord
God took notice of Noah's good behavior and righteous character, leading Him to bestow grace and favor upon Noah
God said: 'Noah! A flood is coming now / Take off your jacket and put down your hat! / Take an axe, start immediately: / Get Sem, Ham, and Japhet, and build yourself an ark!'
God instructed Noah to build an ark in preparation for the flood and to gather his family and animals, in order to survive the disaster
Noah said: 'Lord, I don't think I can do this!' / God said: 'Noah, don't make a stubborn face! / You never know what you can do until you try it / Now go and get some lumber, even if you curse quietly!'
Noah hesitated but God encouraged him to have faith and to try his best, even if he was uncertain and apprehensive
Noah cried: 'Lord, it's big and beautiful!' / God said: 'Noah, it's time to get on board / Take a pair of every animal, without blemish and healthy / And Mrs. Noah, the children, the cat, and the dog!'
Noah marveled at the ark's impressive size, but God urged him to focus on the task at hand, gathering a variety of animals and people onto the ark
Noah said: 'Lord, it's starting to rain!' / God said: 'Noah, bring the animals into the ark!' / Noah screamed: 'Lord, it's pouring here!' / God said: 'Noah, hurry up and close the door!'
As the flood began, Noah was instructed to gather the animals into the ark, and to secure the door in order to keep them safe and dry
The ark rose on the flood / And after forty days, Noah looked through the door / He said: 'Lord, where are we? I'm tired of rocking!' / God said: 'You're sitting on Mount Ararat!'
The ark floated safely on the flood for many days, until finally coming to rest on Mount Ararat; Noah was relieved and curious to know where they had landed
Noah cried: 'Lord, the waters are receding!' / God said: 'Noah, look at the rainbow over there! / Bring all the animals and people back into the light / Be fruitful and multiply, and don't annoy me!'
As the floodwaters subsided, Noah saw a rainbow and was grateful that God had spared him and his family; he was instructed to start anew and to populate the earth with his descendants
